Abstract

"This Just In" piece reporting that Lisa Chmelecki and Hannah Ames, two Maine Law students working at the school's Cumberland Legal Aid Clinic, are taking on the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on behalf of two University of Maine students. Nine months ago, UMaine refused to tell the RIAA which of its students was potentially responsible for illegal music downloads. The RIAA sought a court order forcing the university to reveal the students' names. Ames and Chmelecki argue that the RIAA's effort is not specific enough to meet federal standards that would require the university to turn over the names. The motion is now before a federal district-court judge in Bangor.
